| book description |

This is the first full scholarly appraisal of the distinctive British experimental writer, Ann Quin. Provides a much needed full and in-depth critical appraisal of Ann Quin. Recuperates this important but neglected British experimental woman writer. Written by the world expert in the field. Grounded in original archival research that illuminates our understanding of Quin's life and work. Responds to and participates in burgeoning critical and popular interest in Quin. Enriches and extends the wider scholarly reappraisal of experimental writing of the period. Ann Quin's innovative, versatile oeuvre made a vital contribution to 1960s and '70s British experimental writing. While contemporaries praised her vivid and energetic prose, a sustained and in-depth study of Quin has so far been absent from scholarly reassessment of this literary era. As the first comprehensive appraisal of her writing and life, this book redresses that critical neglect, aims to recuperate Quin as a key female experimental writer of the twentieth century, shows how the precarious possibility of her writing is its essential attribute, and demonstrates the lasting importance of her work. Its combination of scholarly analysis and archival expertise investigates her life, writing and forms of experimentation to convey precisely what is striking and significant about Quin.
